Summary: | Silverstein (emeritus, social work, U. of Pennsylvania) offers a thoughtful, if brief, examination of contemporary issues in the treatment of mental illness, particularly in regard to the severely, chronically mentally ill. He analyzes the failure of the national mental health program in the US, and considers the potential of citizen action organizations to affect policy and programs.
